Resolution
To resolve this issue:Notes:
Before removing any software, take a complete backup of the ADAM Database. For more information, see Performing an end-to-end backup and restore for View Manager (1008046).Capture the information from the admin settings like Secure tunnel and any Secure Gateway as it gets changed after reinstall and can be disruptive to connectivity if entered incorrectly.
On the Connection Server machine that does not replicate:
Remove the Connection Server and AD LDS Instance VMwareVDMDS software:
Navigate to Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program.Uninstall the VMware View Connection Server software.Uninstall the AD LDS Instance VMwareVDMDS software.Reboot if required.
Remove the ADAM role:
Navigate to Administrative Tools > Server Manager > Roles.Click Remove Roles > Next.Deselect Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services, then click Next until you reach Finish.Reboot if required.
Remove the Connection Server machine that does not replicate from the View Administrator console of the other Connection Servers. Using command prompt window on the other Connection Server machines, run this command: vdmadmin.exe -S -r -s old_connection_server_name Reinstall the Connection Server software (choosing the Replica server option) on the affected Connection Server machine.After the machine is installed verify that replication works successfully using the repadmin.exe command. For example: repadmin.exe /showrepl localhost:389 DC=vdi,DC=vmware,DC=int
